hey guys dr. Berg here I have another

question about what salad mixture should

you consume and I’m just going to talk

about the different types of things that

you could put in a salad okay and the

nutrients that are involved in that we

have romaine lettuce green lettuce

cabbage spinach and kale there’s arugula

there’s a whole bunch of others but I

just wanted to pick the most popular and

then just kind of rate them based on how

much vitamin K which is good for

clotting and vitamin A good for the eyes

vitamin C folate potassium and

phosphorus now I’m not going to go

through all the numbers but I just

wanted to talk about out of all the

vegetables you can see whose which one

is the winner is the kale I mean it’s

loaded with vitamin K I mean as a 1062

milligrams compared everything else it

just you know this is amazing so if you

were on coumadin for example because you

are on you have heart problems and

you’re preventing clots

you probably want to avoid kale and

maybe you want to do something like

cabbage or green lettuce but nothing

dark green all right but kale is loaded

with vitamin K now we talked about

vitamin A spinach has the most vitamin A

but green lettuce actually comes in

second so that’s pretty cool but realize

vitamin A in vegetables is a pre vitamin

A it’s not an active form so you’re

going to have to get your active form

through something like cod liver oil or

or eggs or something like that now when

we get to vitamin C this is interesting

yeah kale is the winner again 53

milligrams but look at cabbage comes in

second 33 compared to these other

vegetables cabbage is loaded with

vitamin C now I’ve recently done a lot

of videos and vitamin C deficiencies so

I think cabbage would be a great way to

get your vitamin C then we get into

folate which is romaine lettuce is

loaded with full light compared to other

things it’s pretty high and then spinach

comes in second looks like kales not too

much in folate and then we get into the

potassium

you know kale has the most it’s almost

three thousand three hundred and then it

has a good amount of phosphorus as well

and that would be good for energy

building bone and ligament and collagen

and things like that but the point I

wanted to make is that you need to start

consuming vegetables because check this

out in the US alone a hundred and forty

five pounds of sugar is consumed by the

average American only thirty three

pounds of lettuce is consumed by the

average American so it’s not a lot and

it’s probably I do probably thirty three

pounds a month myself but you want to

start increasing I would do this I would

buy big bowls okay not plates by the

bowl and fill it up and that’s your

salad at least one of those a day or

maybe even two but I just wanted to

create the chart to kind of give you a

little deeper insight on the benefits of

certain types of vegetables more than

others I think kales the winner and you

should probably do that and I like

cabbage spinach is pretty good too

thanks for watching hi guys hey listen I

created a pretty amazing evaluation quiz

down below that actually analyzes your

symptoms to find the cause the root

cause of all of your symptoms the most

likely cause

so take the quiz now and we’ll send you
